Regional Unit Team Members

The regional Community Engagement Unit lives within the region we serve. We take a proactive approach to identify historically excluded communities within each region of the state. We strive to develop long-term relationships with Tribal leaders and program staff, community-based organizations, elected officials, faith-based and informal community leaders.
